Leon our Farrier

Took a few, very short video clips (actually thought I was taking pictures!) of our farrier, Leon Hebb and his apprentice Dillon, while they were here last week.  Even though the video is short, you should be able to notice how back-breaking this type of work is.  It is unbelievable.  If ever you are feeling like you are working hard, just think of Leon.  The other thing you can get out of this video (at the very end) is how knowledgeable farriers are about many things - especially music - in Leon's case!
